BACKGROUND 1.1. Logar province is located at the center of the country and have 60 km distance south of Kabul, with a surface area of 5000 km2, sharing the Kabul river basin. Kabul and Nangarhar are located to the north, Paktia to the southeast, Wardak and Ghazni to the west of the province. It is divided into seven districts (Baraki Barak, Charkh, Khoshi, Kharwar, Mohammad Agha, Azra and Puli Alam) and contains hundreds of villages. Logar's capital city is Puli Alam. It is on the main road leading to Paktia and Khost provinces. Puli Alam has been reconstructed since the fall of the Taliban. The high way from Logar to Kabul was constructed in 2006, significantly reducing travel time to the capital Kabul. Additional projects including numerous schools, radio stations, government facilities, and a major Afghan National Police base also reconstructed. Like most Afghan cities, there is little municipal planning or services in logar province. Electricity is provided by diesel generators, and wells are the primary source of drinking water. Logar province population is approximately 0.5 million, which is multi-ethnic and a tribal society. The overall literacy rate in Logar province is 30% .There are around 168 primary and secondary schools in the province catering for 81,538 students. There are nearly 2,082 teachers working in schools in the Logar province. There are several girls schools in the province, mostly located in Koshi and Pul-e-alam districts. The main natural resources in this province are Ainak Copper mine in Mohammad Agha district and two water reservoirs of Kharwar & Surkhab areas. The water from these two reservoirs is used for irrigation purposes. 1.2. Geographically Logar can be generally described as a relatively flat river valley in the north and central regions, surrounded by rugged mountains to the east, south, and southwest. The district of Azra, in the east, consists almost entirely of mountains, while travel to the Paktia Province to the south is limited to the Tera Pass, a 2896 m high road that was recently completed as part of the international reconstruction effort in Afghanistan. The Kabul-Gardez Highway runs north-south through Logar Province, from the Mohammed Agha District south to the Paktiya Province border. 1 1.3. The proposed Area for the development of a new international airport is located at a distance of 10 km at the south of Mohammad Agha District, approximately 38 km from Kabul capital, and 3 km far to the east of Kabul-Gardez Highway. The Area is surrounded by rugged mountains on two sides. The proposed area is shown on the map attached a separate file as MAP-1. 1.4. The Aviation industry within Afghanistan is particularly important for the national economy, as the air transport is the only viable passenger transport mode for travel between major destinations for most purposes. Without access to these services, our business would not be able to compete in global economy. The Civil Aviation sector is managed by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan where the civil aviation has recently separated from the ministry of Transportation as an independent Governmental Authority. The young and energetic leadership has taken some important decisions to enhance the national income through Aviation sector. Air transport is a key component in the development of the country’s economy and is closely linked to the development of the tourism industry. The project is justified 2 because of the present and future requirements as under: i) to improve the conditions of the existing civil aviation facilities and to establish safe operating procedures that conform with ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) standards, ii) to provide a safe and reliable mode of transport, and iii) to support the Government’s strategy to stimulate the country’s economic growth by providing air transportation to facilitate the mobilization of social, economic, and administrative resources. It is expected that the Kabul Airport might not be sufficient to Handle the future demands of the growing Capital therefore Civil Aviation Authority is planning to develop an international Airport near to Kabul City at Logar province in order to fulfill the future requirements of the City and region as a whole. The principle outputs of the Feasibility study will be used as a base for the development of future master plan for the Airport Construction and the development of a suitable financing and implementation plan. 2. OBJECTIVES OF THE ASSIGNMENT 2.1. The main objective of this project is to develop an international airport at least to fulfill the future 20 years demands and requirements of civil aviation for the capital and as a whole for the central zone of the country, where the present Hamid Karzai International Airport at Kabul might not fulfill the future demands of the passengers from the central zone taking into consideration the rapid growth in population and development of the country. Second objective of the project is increasing domestic connectivity, through the provision of reliable and standard civil aviation facilities in accordance with the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) standards, Central zone Social and Economic growth through the connectivity, the development of the tourism industry and increase in income levels. In order to plan and execute the project successfully, it will be important to undertake Feasibility study of the proposed site for the development of Logar International Airport. This feasibility study will assist the Afghanistan Civil Aviation Authority to achieve project objectives and targets. 3. SCOPE OF SERVICES 3.1. Specifically the objective of this feasibility study is to assess the feasibility of the proposed site for the development of Logar international airport. At least the following factors should be considered in this feasibility study: 4 i. Regional Plan: Evaluation of the proposed site with respect to the regional plan. ii. Airport security and protection: assessment of the natural protection from the air raids and to be used as a combat field. iii. Proximity to other Airports: taking into account the volume of air traffic. iv. Ground Accessibility: Public transportation facilities, the time required to reach the airport from the center of the city taking into consideration the traffic congestion at different timings. v. Topography of the Area: Natural features like ground contours, trees, streams etc. vi. Obstructions: manmade or natural obstructions for the approach. Preparation of obstacle limitation surface taking into consideration the ICAO recommendation. vii. Visibility: visibility reducing factors like fog, smoke and haze. viii. Wind: wind data i.e., direction, duration and intensity of wind and proposed better orientation of runway best on wind rose diagram. ix. Noise Nuisance: Taking into account the residential and industrial development at present and future. x. Grading, Drainage and soil characteristics: Investigation for Grading, drainage flooding costs based on the soil characteristics and topography of the site. xi. Future Developments: considering that the air traffic volume will increase in future, more numbers of runways have to be provided for an increased traffic and more facilities may be required for processing passengers traveling. Anticipation of future development. xii. Availability of Utilities from Town: Assessment of the various facilities. xiii. Economic Consideration: Economical Aspects taking into consideration various factors. xiv. Site Evaluation based on Airport Configuration: Evaluation of the site taking into account configuration of Runway, Taxiway, Aprons, Holding bays and location of major facilities. 5 3.2. Surveys to be conducted: 3.2.1. Traffic Survey: For Determination of the amount of air traffic including the anticipated traffic for future, taking into consideration other airports in the vicinity of the proposed airport specifically Hamid Karzai International Airport. 3.2.2. Meteorological Survey: Determination of direction, duration and intensity of wind, rainfall, fog, temperature and barometric pressure etc. preparation of wind rose diagram for the alignment of Runway taking into consideration the obstacle limitation surface. 3.2.3. Topographical Survey: Topographic survey is an essential and important phase of feasibility study as the result of this survey following maps should be prepared taking into account all necessary measures: a) Preparation of contour map showing other natural features such as trees, streams etc. b) Preparation of map showing such constructed objects as pole lines, building, roads etc. 3.2.4. Geotechnical Survey: In Geotechnical investigation of the proposed airport site at least following investigations and activities should be considered: Geotechnical/physical properties
